In the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast, Matt Harmon and Frank Schwab break down the crowded backfield in Kansas City with Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Jerk McKinnon and Isiah Pacheco, and debate which, if any, of the RBs are worth a draft pick for fantasy managers. Video Transcript [BUMPS, BAT HITTING BALL, NET SWISHING] MATT HARMON: CEH has kind of moved, at least for me in my rankings, from a post dead zone running back to sort of firmly in the running back dead zone I’ve got him at running back… Source link

In the Yahoo Fantasy Football Forecast podcast, Andy Behrens and Matt Harmon look at some new faces in Kansas City and how they will perform with Patrick Mahomes for fantasy purposes. Video Transcript [CHEERING] [CRACK OF THE BAT] MATT HARMON: Next team up on my list is Kansas City Chiefs. They’re an interesting team for me because other than Mahomes and Kelce, this pass-catching corps is entirely been turned– and Mecole Hardman is still there, for sure. And Mecole Hardman actually could be a… Source link

Andy Reid didn’t think he’d get offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy to return for another season. That, however, isn’t because of any rift between the two of them. Reports of any issues between the two, Reid said Tuesday from the NFL combine in Indianapolis, were completely made up. “The whole thing with Eric Bieniemy has gotten kind of fabricated,” Reid said, via ESPN. “We were on vacation and over the two weeks I came back and all of a sudden it was that I didn’t like Eric and… Source link

Zac Taylor just led the Cincinnati Bengals to the Super Bowl … and he did so with the worst regular season winning percentage for any head coach to ever reach the big game, sitting at 0.337 from 2019-2021. And for one half against the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC championship game on Sunday, Taylor played the part. Between the lack of aggressive play-calling and lack of physicality against an officiating crew known to avoid throwing flags, Taylor looked outmatched against Andy Reid and the… Source link

Losing the coin toss in overtime isn’t a death sentence, though you heard a lot about how the rules were unfair to the Buffalo Bills after an AFC divisional-round loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.  To get the ball to your offense, the defense needs to keep the opponent out of the end zone on the first drive. And that’s what the Cincinnati Bengals did.  The Chiefs won the coin toss after tying a thrilling AFC championship game with a field goal as time expired in regulation, and there were… Source link

The Cincinnati Bengals caught a bad break early in Sunday’s AFC championship game that might have cost them points. Trailing the Kansas City Chiefs, 7-0 after the latest rendition of Patrick Mahomes wizardry, the Bengals looked to answer with a drive into red zone on their second possession. On second-and-10 from the Kansas City 14-yard line, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow looked to wideout Tee Higgins in the end zone.  Higgins got his left hand on the ball, but Chiefs cornerback Rashad… Source link

The Kansas City Chiefs have activated safety Tyrann Mathieu from concussion protocol ahead of Sunday’s AFC championship game against the Cincinnati Bengals.  Mathieu suffered the injury in last week’s win over the Buffalo Bills. He was cleared to play against the Bengals in the hours leading up to kickoff. Chiefs safety Tyrann Mathieu will play on Sunday.

Tyreek Hill‘s 64-yard touchdown catch and run was one of the wildest moments in quite possibly the wildest game in recent NFL history, but the NFL isn’t happy with one part of the play. The league has fined the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver $10,300 for flashing a peace sign at defenders while running into the end zone, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. Here’s the play in question, which the NFL had no qualms about posting to social media despite the poor sportsmanship on… Source link

With just over 11 minutes remaining in the Week 17 game between the Kansas City Chiefs and Cincinnati Bengals, CBS broadcaster Tony Romo had a premonition. Romo and Jim Nantz had just been talking about “The Catch,” the famous Joe Montana-to-Dwight Clark touchdown in the 1981 season’s NFC championship, vaulting the San Francisco 49ers into their first Super Bowl to face this same Bengals franchise, allowing for a natural tie-in to this game. With the Bengals holding a slim edge over the… Source link

The Cincinnati Bengals are preparing to travel where they’ve never been before. No, not Kansas City. But an AFC championship game on the road. The Bengals have twice played in and won the AFC championship. But both of those games in their 80s heyday were played in the friendly confines of Riverfront Stadium. On Sunday they’ll travel to one of the least-hospitable stadiums in sports for the highest-stakes round of NFL football not played at a neutral site. Preparing for Arrowhead Stadium is a… Source link
